Logo design for a bar and bistro in Liverpool, UK
We recently completed a logo design for a new UK Bar called Le-Lobster, it is one of what will become in mid 2009 part of a chain of up-market bars that will be built in many UK cities and towns.
The client wanted a more traditional logo than most new bars but still kept very minimum and classy, this was achieved by using a very simple and easily recognizable icon with a very light serif type to give it a timeless and up-market feel.

I like the logo itself, but couldn’t help wondering whether it would look better upside down, to emulate the t L’s in the name of the bar.
The colour of the logo again could be an issue when it comes to backgrounds. It’s perfect if it always sits on red, but how does it look on white, i.e. on stationary?

Thanks for your concern Rob but as you can see from the link the logo looks just as good in black and white

your right, if anything think the black and white gives it a more decadent and upmarket feel.

I haven’t come across one logo that I’m not impressed with. Very nice work. One question – and this is just the curiosity of a designer, not a criticism. The horizontal rule in the Le Lobster Bistro logo doesn’t seem to align with anything. Can you tell me what your thinking was there? Thanks.

It just looked a bit better than lining it up with the tag line maybe because it echo’s the shape slightly from above.

Toon,
The logo looks great! Very classy, with warm and inviting colors. It’s good to see you didn’t try to squeeze a whole lobster into your design; it would have been too crowded, preventing you from achieving the “upscale” effect.
We had a lot of fun deciding on our logo for our relatively new Crawfish website. We also used a similar color scheme, especially since the yellow/gold looks so good with red. (I guess if it’s good enough for McDonald’s, it’s good enough for us- lol!)
Keep up the good work, including the killer site.
Cheers!
